Avior Wealth Management serves a broad mix of individual and institutional clients — including high‑net‑worth individuals, pension and retirement plans, corporations, trusts, and banks or thrift institutions — with discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, financial planning, pension consulting, and business consulting services. The firm also provides held‑away account management for retirement plan and annuity assets and offers both modular and comprehensive financial planning engagements.

The firm’s investment approach is primarily fundamental analysis, using both long‑term and short‑term positions and a mix of direct portfolio management and separately managed account (SMA) models that utilize third‑party sub‑advisers. Avior typically implements accounts through Charles Schwab or Fidelity custodians, may negotiate SMA arrangements and prime brokerage services, and uses a third‑party platform (Pontera) to review and rebalance held‑away plan and annuity accounts.

Compared with many peers, Avior maintains related operating businesses — including an affiliated tax and accounting firm and an insurance subsidiary — and discloses referral and compensation arrangements with those affiliates and with outside “promoters,” which can affect referral economics and service delivery. The firm also notes that some financial professionals are dually registered with a broker/dealer and that it serves banking or thrift institution clients, both of which are less common among enterprise advisers of this size.
